Log
Files
As is true of most
Web sites, we gather certain information automatically and store it in
log files. This information includes internet protocol (IP)
addresses, browser type, internet service provider (ISP),
referring/exit pages, operating system, date/time stamp, and
clickstream data.
We use this
information, which does not identify individual users, to analyze
trends, to administer the site, to track users’ movements around the
site and to gather demographic information about our user base as a
whole.
We do not link this automatically-collected data to personally
identifiable information. IP addresses are tied to personally
identifiable information to authenticate transmissions submitted on
forms.
Cookies
A cookie is a small text file that is
stored on a user’s computer for record-keeping purposes. We use
cookies on this site. We do link the information we store in cookies
to personally identifiable information you submit while on our site to
track who submits what information.
We use both session ID cookies and persistent cookies. We use session
cookies to track advertising effectiveness. A session ID cookie
expires when you close you browser. A persistent cookie remains on
your hard drive for an extended period of time. You can remove
persistent cookies by following directions provided in your Internet
browser’s “help” file.
We set a persistent cookie to track links sent to us by our
affiliates. If you reject cookies, you may still use our site. This
privacy statement covers the use of cookies by WeBrokerWebsites.com
only.
Clear Gifs
(Web Beacons/Web Bugs)
Our third party
advertising partners, both Overture and Google, employs a software
technology called clear gifs (a.k.a. Web Beacons/Web Bugs), that help
us better manage content on our site by informing us what content is
effective. Clear gifs are tiny graphics with a unique identifier,
similar in function to cookies, and are used to track the online
movements of Web users. In contrast to cookies, which are stored on a
user’s computer hard drive, clear gifs are embedded invisibly on Web
pages and are about the size of the period at the end of this
sentence. We tie the information gathered by clear gifs to our
customers’ personally identifiable information to help us better
target our advertising.
To learn more about
our advertising company’s use of clear gifs, please go to Overture.com
and Google.com
We use clear gifs in
our HTML-based emails to let us know which emails have been opened by
recipients. This allows us to gauge the effectiveness of certain
communications and the effectiveness of our marketing campaigns. If
you would like to opt-out of these emails, please see “Choice and
Opt-out.”
Security
We follow generally accepted industry standards to protect the personal
information submitted to us, both during transmission and once we
receive it. No method of transmission over the Internet, or method of
electronic storage, is 100% secure, however. Therefore, while we
strive to use commercially acceptable means to protect your personal
information, we cannot guarantee its absolute security. However, our
payment processor, Paypal, uses SSL encryption to secure payment
transmission.
Changes in this Privacy
Statement
If we decide to
change our privacy policy, we will post those changes to this privacy
statement, the homepage, and other places we deem appropriate so that
you are aware of what information we collect, how we use it, and under
what circumstances, if any, we disclose it.
We reserve the right
to modify this privacy statement at any time, so please review it
frequently. If we make material changes to this policy, we will
notify you here, by email, or by means of a notice on our home page.
